I couldn't agree more. Starting with Dennis, everyone has been willing
to share knowledge. I have a memory of Dennis having "handlers" at
Usenix so one person wouldn't eat up all of his time.
That was not true, as much as the community might have intervened if we
thought somebody was a little out of line./i.e./, we might have been
protective of him. Dennis was really too nice to have said anything.
The one time I spoke to Dennis, I went up to the lectern after he spoke
somewhere, probably a USENIX Technical Conference, to shake his hand and
thank him. As I recall, neither of us said much, no one else was nearby.
